Well in one way, certainly.

But in another way, his brother won’t be sucking a six-figure salary off the taxpayers.

And, what if his brother might have some talent or creativity or ingenuity to contribute for the benefit of New Yorkers? Hey, could happen. Stranger things certainly have.

At this early point I’m willing to give the benefit of the doubt. And we shall certainly see if it’s deserved.

New Year's Eve in many places - HUGE problem with random gunfire.

We drove out through L.A.'s San Fernando Valley one New Year's Eve, and I couldn't believe the gunfire! It was like being in an open shooting range! Gunfire was EVERYWHERE. The sounds of shooting - from EVERY direction, both near and fire. God only knows where those bullets wound up...

Yeah, no kidding.

Yes. It does.

Good way to demonstrate, publicly, that you're against grifters and nepotism.

I find myself wondering how many of these ideas we could slip into the fine print

of other bills the GOP would not oppose too stridently.

If I were in Congress, I might be trying that on several bills, in several ways.

If they won't open the door, then can we slip it in through the mail slot? Or through the cat door? Or through a side window? Or... ?

I won't shed any tears.

My only reaction to stories (and candidates and campaigns) like this is - "meh, one less Republican voter."

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
